Senior Software Engineer (Platform)

ExaCare AI•New York, NY

About The Position

Organizations switch to ExaCare because their admission processes are broken. They rely on multiple outdated platforms and error-prone manual work to admit residents. This fragmentation wastes time and leads to suboptimal care and business outcomes. We’re looking for a high-ownership Senior Software Engineer (Platform) to build and scale the infrastructure, backend systems, and internal platform capabilities that power ExaCare’s products and engineering velocity.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related technical field
5+ years of software engineering experience with a strong focus on backend systems, infrastructure, platform engineering, or DevOps
Experience building and operating scalable distributed systems in production environments
Strong proficiency with TypeScript, PostgreSQL, and REST APIs
Hands-on experience with serverless technologies such as AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and Google Cloud Functions.
Deep experience with AWS cloud infrastructure and modern DevOps tooling
Experience with containerization and orchestration technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes
Strong understanding of CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, observability, and system reliability practices
Experience designing secure, resilient, and maintainable backend architectures
Ability to rapidly learn new technologies and independently execute ambiguous, high-impact projects
Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly across teams

Responsibilities

Build and scale core platform infrastructure. Design and maintain reliable backend services, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and internal platform systems that support rapid product development and scalable operations.
Own production systems end-to-end. Develop and operate highly available distributed systems using TypeScript, PostgreSQL, AWS, and modern infrastructure tooling. Ensure systems are secure, observable, fault-tolerant, and performant.
Improve developer velocity. Create internal tooling, deployment automation, developer workflows, feature flag systems, and platform abstractions that help the engineering team ship faster and more confidently.
Lead reliability and operational excellence. Establish best practices around monitoring, incident response, infrastructure-as-code, testing, deployment safety, and system resiliency. Participate in production incident triage and continuous reliability improvements.
Architect scalable backend systems. Design APIs, background processing systems, event-driven workflows, queues, and integrations that support complex healthcare operations at scale.
Drive platform innovation. Evaluate and implement modern infrastructure patterns, AI-powered developer workflows, and scalable cloud-native technologies that improve engineering productivity and product capabilities.
Collaborate cross-functionally. Work closely with product, engineering, and operations teams to translate business needs into robust technical systems and platform capabilities.
